Kensington Cares Food Tour & Exhibit

When Covid-19 hit Kensington, Brooklyn, residents, businesses and community organizers reached out to their neighbors, raised funds, and worked long hours lifting heavy boxes to make sure that no one would go hungry. Throughout the pandemic, Anna and Jordan Rathkopf photographed and interviewed these diverse networks of people who devoted their time, energy, and hearts to mutual aid in their community.

Hosted on November 14, 2021, Kensington Cares Food Tour & Exhibit, co-sponsored by NOCD-NY and Arts & Democracy, featured the Kensington Cares exhibit and a self-guided walking tour that celebrates local businesses and community groups involved in the work, including Thai Farm Kitchen, Jalsa Grill & Gravy and more! Although the photo exhibition is no longer installed on Avenue C plaza, photos featured in the exhibition can be found here and the program was designed so that participants take take their own self-guided tour after the event.
